here no objective fn is given i tried to use artificial variables and make a auxilarly lpp but this is not also working as i am getting a solution that satisfies only the first and second equations i.e. i am getting the values of only x and z

please help..

Re: simplex method problem

The problem can't be as stated. You have 3 equations in 3 unknowns and the solution is what it is. You can't further specify x,y,z>0 without potentially having no solution at all. From what I read simplex method problems are generally optimization problems or systems of inequalities.

This is just a straightforward system of equations with solution {1,1,2}
